Who We Are:
With multiple locations, Kruse Glass & Aluminum works across Saskatchewan & Alberta to provide glass & construction solutions in the auto, residential & commercial construction space. We are searching for immediate assistance in our Medicine Hat branch.
Job Summary:
Our team is comprised of a very busy group of hard workers with many projects on the go at once.

We understand that this is a very broad group of working environments, therefore we are searching for candidates who comfortably work in diverse locales accordingly. Most times, our projects are local to the area, however there are also instances when Kruse Glass has additional projects which require the team to assist other branch locations, albeit briefly and temporarily. This certainly isn’t commonplace practice, but it does happen enough to warrant note of it’s existence.
What makes our building construction glaziers great?

Those traits are 100% ingrained at the core of our company’s culture and it directly translates into our character. Whether it’s the morning arrival in the shop or while we arrive onto our customer’s job sites, our team is dedicated to being friendly, honest, hardworking, organized & working in a fashion which pleases both our customers and coworkers alike. Our dedication to friendliness and quality workmanship are the very traits which we are looking for in our next glaziers/installers too.
